8.1.2 Checking the Fan
You can check that the fan is working in 2 ways:
• Set the "Fan-Test" parameter to "1" in the installer mode (using Sunny Data Control, Sunny
Explorer or Sunny WebBox).
or
• Plug the provided jumper into the sequential control system board.
Setting Parameters
1. Request the installer password from the SMA Serviceline (contact: see page 73).
2. Set the "Fan-Test" parameter to "1" in the installer mode.
3. Check the air-flow of the fan.
The inverter sucks air in from underneath and then blows it back out on the upper left side. Listen
for any unusual noise that could indicate incorrect installation or that the fan is faulty.
4. After checking the fan, set the "Fan-Test" parameter back to "0".
☑ You have finished checking the fan.
